Bone Helmet Crafting

So i got lucky enough to find an ilvl 86 bone helmet.

I want to get it elder influenced and the 40% Skeleton dmg enchant on it. How to i best go about it?

Can i f.e influence it with a hunters orb and then roll the harvest influence randomizer on it? Or is there a smarter way to do it? Buy an awakeners orb maybe?

As for the enchant i have to run lab for it right? How likely is the enchant? I have 3 Teile enchant prophecies for whatever thats worth. I absolutely hate doing lab though? Is that a service i can pay for on console?

And say i manage all that how do i best go about crafting it? Alts? Chaos Spam? Or more advanced crafting. Looking for +3gems and some minion modifiers

Would be great to get some input im fairly New to the game and only have a vague idea about the many options but no Real understanding. Im half guessing basically.

Would be great to get some advice :)

Thanks

If you only want elder influence then don't use an awakener's orb; that will give two influences and add unwanted mods to the pool it can roll. Go with the conq exalted orb and harvest change influence, yes.

Though I might check if any ilevel 86 elder influenced bone helmets are cheaper on trade first.


Your chance for the correct enchant from the lab is something like 1/60 per attempt. It gives you 3 random ones to choose from each time, and with the prophecy and darkshrine that's 3 attempts per normal lab run. There's also the gift of the goddess lab that's harder but gives 6 attempts (8 with prophecy and darkshrine).


As for best way to go about crafting it... either alch/scours or fossils are usually the best. Check out Craft of Exile and look at the chances to get your mods with various methods.

Is 1/60 per attempt correct? That doesnt sound too bad. Google was pretty inconclusive but ive read its close to impossible to farm for a specific enchants? Or in another thread ive read something like above 500:1 Was that before some Patch maybe? 1/60 seems like an ok aamount of grinding for this game.

Could someone clarify please.

My helmet is basically ready just missing the enchant
